Reggie had been handing out party invitations all day to those he preferred. Suitably, none of the outcasts would be getting an invite. He had handed one to Midge just as he saw Riverdale's power couple, Veronica and Archie walk down the hall. He shoved one onto Archie's chest as he spoke. "Dude, you guys have to go." Reggie softly handed Veronica an invite. "I dont know Reggie, with everything that's been going on lately-" Reggie cut him off. "It'll be an excellent stress reliever." Archie looked at Veronica, who looked like she didn't care either way, and looked back at Reggie. "Okay, I guess. But can I get one more?" Reggie gave him another one and patted him on the back. "You won't be dissapointed Andrews." Veronica and Archie kept walking down the hall as Archie faced her. "Hey I uh, forgot my jacket in the news room, I'll meet you in class, okay?" Veronica smiled, kissing Archie's cheek. "See ya soon." As soon as Veronica was out of sight, he ran into the news room, closing the door. There in the news room, a sad Betty Cooper sat writing in a small book. "Hey Archie, what's up?" He sat down on the desk and handed her the invitation. "You've got to go." Betty sighed. "Archie no, you know I -" Archie cut her off. "Come on Betty, you have to go. When was the last time you have fun or let loose?" Betty looked down, pretending like she was trying to remember. "Do it for me B." Betty smiled and shook her head. "I'll think about it. Hey, " Archie turned around to Betty. "how'd things with Jughead go?" Archie's mind flashbacked to the scene.

She's been wanting to break up with you for weeks. Shes been agonizing over it. Ever since you crossed the dark side she could bring herself to do it.

So she sent you? Betty would never do that!

If you don't believe me then call her! And feel free to tell her your a serpent now too. I bet she'll love that.

Archie looked up at Betty. "It went fine. Jughead was hurt and confused, but he'll get over it." At that note, Archie walked out of the room. It was hard to lie to Betty, but that's what he had to do. He looked down at the invitation one more time. "Let's hope this party really does relive my stress."
